What an eye opener Andy! I now know what PIR is and how to easy it is to calculate it. Gonna make things easier for me to get the correct snow foam measurements now. Cheers
Cheers Karl. Only certain brands use PIR but when they do it's best to do the calculation properly and get things correct. Using too much or too little foam solution can inhibit the product from working as advertised.
Excellent explanation Andrew.
Thank you. Hopefully less experienced people will benefit. Cheers.
Great review, I am pretty new to your channel but I am so impressed with the level of detail you provide and currently working my way through your archive.
Keep up the good work.
Many thanks indeed. Really appreciate the positive feedback. Enjoy all our videos.
Great video as always.
I prefer the neat product method, using the adjuster to control the PIR. I Calibrate the cannons to produce 5, 4, 3, & even 1% PIR, making a note of the position of the control knob and then, if I want to top up or swap product I don't have to do any dilution.
Great Tip that Shaun. Might even do that myself from now on. Cheers.
Great video Andy 👍👊
Many thanks.
Great video. Very detailed and interesting
Cheers Billy. Many thanks.
That video will open visitors eyes to the realisation of what is also technically needed to get PIR right …. Enjoyed that nice Andrew
Thanks Bri.
Excellent video partner.
Cheers partner.
Great vid again Andy
Your a very kind man. Cheers.
Excellent video as always Andy! PIR is a great subject. And even still we aren't seeing that many manufacturers giving PIR recommendations on their snowfoam. But it's such a more accurate way of doing things 👌👌
Many thanks. I agree. The only way to ensure the correct amount of product on the car, factoring the cannon and pressure washer is to calculate it like this. A few more manufacturers are quoting PIR so hopefully we will see more in the future. Cheers.
Great video again. I keep saying I'll do this but I know when I upgrade my pressure washer I'll have to do it all again. Fun fact 1ltr of water weighs 1kg BUT 1ltr of A1 jet fuel only weighs 0.80kg, had to double check I heard a pilot say it, looked it up and he was right 🤷♂️🤷♂️
Cheers Paul. Interesting fact about jet fuel.
Same with diesel why it floats on top of water
This is something I've always wanted to do but never got round to (maybe I couldn't be bothered 😕) but I definitely will do this soon. Always worth pointing out, the AG lance will use less water, for those that are on a meter.
Lee. A great point about water usage. Didn't think of that. Cheers.
Thank you great video. Please can you add link to hand snow foam sprayer you referenced ? Thanks
Hiya buddy. The hand sprayer is from a company called Alien Magic. I am not sure they still sell them but will keep looking and drop a link if I find one available.
I’ve got the autoglym lance and a k7
I have the K4 buddy. The K7 is a beast no doubt.
Did you manage to get 1 litre in autoglym? Ive tried at 900ml couldn't get 1 litre in but my calculations came at 900ml around 14 litres so around 560ml product and 340ml water doesnt look right having more product than water?
👍🏻
